Child Safety Restrictors

From 13th March 2018 all Strata Buildings in NSW must have window safety devices fitted that allow the window to be locked at 125mm when the device is engaged. When the device is engaged it will prevent the window from opening fully. When the device is not activated the window can be fully opened. Owners Corporations are responsible for the installation to all Common Property windows that are above ground floor.

The purpose of this legislation is to prevent the fall of children from open windows. Each year more than 50 children fall from open windows with children between the ages of 1 and 5 most at risk.

We install window safety devices for double hung, sliding, casement and even bi-fold windows. If you haven’t had window safety devices installed yet its not too late. Call us today to have your building certified.
